Greetings! My name is Allison and I am an expert parent coach, learning specialist, and behavioral interventionist based in New York City. Over the years I have been continuously working to contribute to and impact the different arenas of the education sphere both for students and adults. It is my core belief that one must create a balance between what is taught at home with what is taught in school to truly reach long lasting and life changing success. I do this through a strong teaching style while understanding the importance of individualized instruction and maintaining it throughout. This has been an integral element in my success in working with students, teachers, and parents.
I have worked in education for 10+ years and have held many positions including educational consultant, curriculum developer, and early intervention therapist. My areas of expertise range far and wide including parent coaching, implementing professional development, and areas of special needs therapy for children with learning disabilities, sensory integration delays, behavioral and aggression challenges, children presenting on the autism spectrum, and more. I have worked in both the public and private sector in schools such as Montclare Children’s School, Manhattan Day School, The River School, Children’s Learning Center affiliated with Columbia University, and Bright Beginnings NYC.
Currently, I continue to work as an education director for a private early childhood institution in downtown Manhattan as well as a parent coach and therapist for private clientele. I hold a dual bachelor’s degree in special education and early childhood education from NYU, and a master’s degree in educational literacy from Hunter College.
Thanks for stopping by, let’s get started.
